The error I am experiencing is something different. I am sorry for my previous comment.
The bug I experience is as that if I reject EULA then also the package is marked as installed.

I ran the command sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer and declined the EULA . I have attached the screenshots. I rerun the command but I am getting output "ttf-mscorefonts-installer is already the newest version". But actually it is not installed. It is not taking me to EULA page to accept it. How to fix this?
